Never rains but it pours...
Okay, I am suffering from a PC power supply failing, and my internet is now failing, as well. I have a call in to Farter to come fix the internet problem, but the power supply issue will require a week to get me back up and running (RMA's are a bitch.)
The upshot of all this is, some things that should be updated this week, won't be. I'm speaking of the Drink of the Week and the Weekly Crossword. Sorry, guys, but I can only fight so many fronts at once.
Until I get back online full-power, Siath will be taking care of things. If you have a problem, please contact him. If it's a serious problem, don't expect him to be able to fix it; he's not a programmer. 
But he can contact me and we can see what can be done.
Hopefully this will be resolved quickly, and I'll be back online in a few days. Until then, Happy Holidays, and this round's on the house.

Hehe don't know how much faith I would have in an ISP called Farter, it sounds like they would stink.

Sex is the question.
Yes is the answer.

Re: Never rains but it pours...
Precisely my point, SM. The "real" name of the company is Charter Communications. The WORST ISP ON THE PLANET. These people are WORSE THAN AOL! If you have any choice whatsoever, avoid this company like the plague.

Re: Never rains but it pours...
I know how it feels to have a smoke show. My comp went blazing pop one day. But when the power blew so did the MB. Sorry your net time. Just a builder myself. If I was the creative type.
I would be a programer. Sure like the the stories....Keep em coming..! Looking to build another
Frankenstin, but need to think of the parts to fit. The brain is the KEY. I like AMD & would like
to stay with 32bit WXPRO. Ah so many minds to Corrupt and body parts around.
